Kermit File Transfers

Top  Previous  Next

 

Kermit is an error-correcting, block-oriented protocol. Kermit transfers start with a header block containing file name and date-time stamp for the file, followed by the contents of the file. This continues for as many files as the sender transmits. By default, Kermit transfers performs Run-Length-Encoding (RLE) data compression that may reduce transmission time.

 

The configuration settings for this protocol in the FileLink Configurator appear below. Click on a particular setting control for more information.
